As an aide he was famous for getting great press for his bosses and was a favorite among the press corps, which made his transition from partisan staffer to objective journalist - at the time an unheard-of move - appear effortless. In fact, Tim was the pioneer of a new generation of television journalists who got their start in politics. He was the first who crossed to the other side, but he was soon followed by Chris Matthews (who studied at the knee of the great Tip O'Neil...
